In the midst of her taunts and menaces she turns with a woman's delicacy to protest against her own violence, "heu, furiis incensa feror!" She humbles herself even to pray for a little respite, if but for a few hours. She pleads her very loneliness; she catches as it were from Æneas the thought of the boy whose future he had pleaded as one cause of his departure and finds in it a plea for pity.
As I departed through the door I was conscious of her eyes following me, and that she had spoken of Lady Baltimore precisely because she was thinking of something else. XIV: The Replacers She had been strange, perceptibly strange, had Eliza La Heu; that was the most which I could make out of it.
And that state of mind, you know," said Miss La Heu, softening down from wrath to her roguish laugh, "isn't the right state of mind for racial progress! But I wasn't thinking of this. You know he has appointed one of them to office here." A light entered my brain: John Mayrant had a position at the Custom House! John Mayrant was subordinate to the President's appointee!
I saw her eyes settle upon the flowers that I had brought Eliza La Heu. "How beautiful those are!" she remarked. "Is there something that you wish?" inquired Miss La Heu, always miraculously sweet. "Some of your good things for lunch; a very little, if you will be so kind."
Michael would have been likely to touch on the subject with an outsider there was nothing whatever to forbid my indulging in a skirmish with Eliza La Heu; therefore I lunched at the Exchange on my last day. "To the mountains?" she said, in reply to my information about my plans of travel. "Doctor Beaugarcon says nothing else can so quickly restore me."
It is most interesting to turn to Virgil's Georgics and see how they apply after the lapse of nearly twenty centuries to the farm-work of the present day. Horace, too, was a farmer, though perhaps more of an amateur; he exclaims at the busy scene presented when men and horses are engaged in active field work: "Heu heu! quantus equis quantus adest viris Sudor!"
We'll go back to our books oh! you have never left them; but I, poor sinner that I am ! Give me my Dante, and let me feel him between my hands! Where is Virgil? Heu! fuge crudeles terras, fuge litus avarum. Is it quoted right? Is it apropos? 'Savonarola's word of fate. 'Then mine too! How have you been so patient with me? A London season and I still have Homer to read!
What place had it for her to smoke her cigarettes in? Eliza La Heu, then? Spite? The pleasure of taking something that somebody else wanted? The pleasure of spoiling somebody else's pleasure? Or, more accurately, the pleasure of power?
You may also tell him that the mother of Linton desired him to remain under my guardianship; and, at present, his health is very precarious. 'Noa! said Joseph, giving a thud with his prop on the floor, and assuming an authoritative air. 'Noa! that means naught. Hathecliff maks noa 'count o' t' mother, nor ye norther; but he'll heu' his lad; und I mun tak' him soa now ye knaw!
Many times a day have I repeated with tears the verse: Heu, fuge crudeles terras, fuge littus avarum! I could not endure the enormous wickedness of the blinded people of Italy; and the more so because I saw everywhere virtue despised and vice honored. We see clearly that Savonarola's vocation took its origin in a deep sense of the wickedness of the world.
